Overall:

A nice old grain whisky with a little spirit character and a lot of ex-bourbon barrel influence, still some odd chemical notes in here and again I found myself drawn to the corn/maize elements which I presume may constitute some of the grain used in its distillation. Overall a nice starter dram for the Water of Life Society EWB Greatness of grain tasting. Where I found the extra 9 points score from I can only guess at a mixture of experience and aesthetics.
